SAVE MANA POOLS
PROTEA Hotels plan to build an "ultra modern' 144-bedroom hotel on the banks of the Zambezi River in a wild area opposite the world-renowned Mana Pools National Park and World Heritage Site.
The proposal to build the hotel in the Chiawa Game Management Area on the Zambian side of the river, has shocked tour operators and conservationists in the region, and has been slammed as 'totally inappropriate' for the area.
An advertisement has appeared in the Zambian newspapers asking for public comments and/or objections to on the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) document for this development that has been submitted to the Environment Council of Zambia (ECZ) for approval.
Submissions should reach the ECZ (see contact details below) NO LATER THAN 14th APRIL 2010
The Zambezi Society was first alerted to this through concerned Zambian tour operators and conservationists (not through the developers nor the consultant who completed the EIS).
THE ZAMBEZI SOCIETY WILL MAKE A SUBMISSION BASED ON THIS MEMBERS CONSULTATION
We wish to make an informed submission on behalf of our membership by the due date and are therefore asking ALL concerned Zambezi Society members to write to us URGENTLY with your comments on this proposal by the end of March 2010.
A full copy of the Environmental Impact Statement for this hotel development can be downloaded from the internet at this link:
http://mailhost.necz.org.zm/news/comments/eis-reports/Lower-Zambezi-Lodge.
CAN I MAKE MY OWN SUBMISSION? IF SO - HOW?
If you (or an organization that you represent) would like to submit a public comment or objection separately (or in addition) to that of The Zambezi Society, please feel free to do so. (e.g. The Lower Zambezi Tour Operators Association will be submitting separately on behalf of Mana Pools operators) Here's what you do:
Step 1: Register your interest IMMEDIATELY by sending a short e-mail asking to be registered 'as an interested and affected party' to the author of the EIS document, consultant Shadreck Nsongela snsongela@zamtel.zm copied to Protea Hotels Zambia Director Adam Leithbridge director@arcades.co.zm Make sure you ask for an acknowledgement by return of e-mail, and keep bugging them until you get one.
Step 2: Prepare your detailed comments and/or objections to the development and send before the 14th April 2010 by e-mail to:
1. The Manager, Inspectorate, Environmental Council of Zambia, jsakala@necz.org.zm and
2. Inspector, Chirundu Border Office, Environmental Council of Zambia, csimwanza@necz.org.zm
Again, insist on an acknowledgement by return of e-mail.
Remember "all the darkness in the world can't put out the light of one candle "

2) NOTICES
ZIMBABWE INTERNATIONAL TRADE FAIR
From the 20th to the 24th of April, the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair (ZITF) gives you the opportunity to step into one of the possibly most promising markets in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The Zimbabwe International Trade Fair is one of the largest multi-sectoral exhibitions in resource- rich Sub-Saharan Africa.
After decades of economic recession Zimbabwe's economic tide is turning and ZITF 2010 will be the place to be to benefit from the rehabilitation of the economy and the re-launch of international trade. Fifteen years ago, Zimbabwe was known as the 'bread basket of southern Africa' and was among the biggest economies in Sub-Saharan Africa.
In spite of the regression, Zimbabwe's infrastructure is still in a good condition. Business opportunities are particular strong in the fields of mining, agriculture, energy and tourism.

HILLSIDE DAMS
Apologies to all of those expecting our monthly newsletter but a glitch has prevented us doing one this last month. Hopefully we will be back on track next. Just to say that developments at the Dams progress steadily and we appreciate your great community support.
Please if you do come with your dogs please control them and poop-scooping would be appreciated. Also take care of your security. We have tried hard to improve matters at the Dams but walking alone talking on the cellphone with and valuables visible just invites problems.
Annual Subscription Cards - April 2010 to March 2011 are now available. They cost US$ 40 per card. This entitles free access at the gate for the family (nuclear family only) for the year. No more need to dig around for change at the gate. If you would like to get yours please email estate@hillsidedams.com or leave a message at the Hillside Dams Boma (telephone 242490). We need details of the holder/family (name/s, address, telephone number and national id.) Previous entry cards will no longer be valid while I will be contacting those who have made substantial donations in the last year to the Conservancy to organise your cards. Please contact me if I forget.
As before entry is free for all senior citizens, although if you can assist with a donation please do feel free. You shouldn't need a card but if you insist let us know.
The boom at Banff Road operates Friday-Sunday and on and around public holidays. For reasons of security we are closing alternative entry points. Entry is still free on other days.
We are always on the scrounge for things. Currently looking for any whitewash or damaged truck rims. If you assist please contact me.
If you plan to hold a function in the Conservancy it would be appreciated if you could book beforehand. A donation would also be appreciated. We are a not for profit organisation and all money is put straight back into the Conservancy. Our books are open for inspection and it is worth noting that we have had to subsidise matters for the last couple of months. The Dams is and will remain a social project, our commitment to a better Bulawayo for all its residents.

Just been reading the articles on your website and was really interested in the Gwaai River Hotel one - my great uncle Piet Van Niekerk built that hotel and ran it for many years before selling it to that other couple (can't remember their names). My mom spent most of her school holidays there and also has wonderfully happy memories and ancient old photos of the 'original' hotel which actually isn't the one on your website - that was the 'renovated' one! Her gran had a farm at Kennedy hence the family business of a hotel as well. I'll see if I can dig out the old photos of the hotel - including some with lion on the tennis court etc! Dates must be around 1945 onwards ....
Cheers
Belinda

Thanks for your balanced article. I was in Zim in October for the first time in 7 yrs where I visited the Falls as well as Hwange National Park. My family and I enjoyed thoroughly the of sight baboons sitting on what used to be billboards along the Bulawayo/Hwange road. Also, we found the service at the A'Zambezi where we stayed to be quite superb though the hotel had more staff than customers.
I pray for the day when things will be back to normal in this beautiful country. If everyone had the same kind of training and courtesy that you find at the National Parks, we would have a great country!!!.
Rgds,
Moses

Zim Parks increase fees
by WildZambezi.com
09-Mar-10
Zimbabwe Parks & Wildlife Authority logo
Zimbabwe's Parks and Wildlife Authority has issued a new schedule of fees for the period May to December 2010 which will affect wildlife-based tourism operations in Kariba and the Zambezi valley this year. Here is a summary of the new changes:
1. Camping: From May 2010, all National Parks campsites will be charged per site and not per person.
2. Park Accommodation and Entry Rates: The three-tier system of charging (whereby International visitors are charged more than Regional visitors who are charged more than Zimbabwe Local Residents), will be phased out this year so that by January 2011, there will be only two rates: Non-resident and Resident. However, the three tier system will continue to apply to Park entry fees.
3. Bookings: Reservations for Parks facilities will, from March 2010, be opened one year in advance to all clients, including Zimbabwe residents (who were previously restricted to booking only 3 months in advance). There will be no more "draw" system for Mana Pools and bookings will be treated on a first come first serve basis, with payment being demanded up front.
